<p>Added Sections</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>{{guide}}<br /> Guide by Arkevorkhat of Bahamut<br /> <br /> As your journey through Vana&#039;diel continues, you may find that your equipment doesn&#039;t meet your needs. This guide aims to help ease your gear progression by guiding you towards lower level gear choices that will help you as you continue to level up.<br /> <br /> === JSE Equipment ===<br /> This is the category that is most important to your endgame.<br /> JSE Equipment is split into 3 main categories: Artifact Armor, Relic Armor, and Empyrean Armor.<br /> <br /> &#039;&#039;note: Geomancer and Rune Fencer exist outside of this section&#039;s recommended progression. They start receiving JSE armor at level 99, and their armor starts at item level 109.&#039;&#039;<br /> ==== Artifact Armor ====<br /> Artifact armor is the first category you will gain access to for all jobs.<br /> <br /> To get access to artifact armor, you first need to complete your job&#039;s artifact weapon quest. Artifact weapon quests open between levels 40 and 42 for most jobs, Scholar being the exception, starting at level 46.<br /> <br /> See [[Artifact Armor]] for more information on your job&#039;s Artifact quests.<br /> <br /> ==== Relic Armor ====<br /> Relic armor is likely not going to be feasible to obtain until you reach level 99. It is obtained by grinding in [[Dynamis]] zones. Each Dynamis zone has a number of pieces that are associated with it, and each piece has one original Dynamis zone and one Dreamworld Dynamis zone associated with it. <br /> <br /> If you choose to grind for your job&#039;s relic armor, Dreamworld Dynamis has easier progression associated with it, only requiring you to defeat one specific boss to progress.<br /> <br /> See [[Relic Armor]] for more information on the Dynamis zones needed for your job&#039;s relic armor.<br /> <br /> ==== Empyrean Armor ====<br /> Empyrean Armor drops from Abyssea. While empyrean pieces are generally quite strong for their jobs, they are also among the most difficult to obtain and upgrade.<br /> <br /> * Head and Hand armor is available for purchase from Cruor Prospectors<br /> * Body Armor is purchased from Dominion Tacticians using currency from [[Dominion]]<br /> * Leg Armor is purchased using Resistance Credits from Bastion Prefects<br /> * Foot armor is obtained from Gold Sturdy Pyxises<br /> <br /> See [[Empyrean Armor]] for more information.</div>
